Smart Lawncare: Healthy Turf with Fewer Inputs
Want a healthy, green lawn while using less water, fertilizer, and chemicals?
Join Conservation Nebraska and Elizabeth Exstrom, an Extension Educator with Nebraska Extension in Hall County, for an informative session on maintaining high-quality turf while reducing fertilizers, pesticides, and overall lawn inputs.
The program will take place on March 31st from 6:00–7:30 PM in the Abbott Room at the Hastings Museum.
During this program, participants will explore turfgrass biology, learn how to select the best grass species for our region, and gain practical strategies for more efficient and environmentally responsible lawn management. The session will also cover key differences between warm- and cool-season grasses and how proper timing and application rates can improve lawn health while minimizing inputs.
This event is free and open to the public. Snacks and drinks will be available.
